Dear Dipteran-Community can someone help me with the identification of the following nematocera? I'm thankful for any tip in the right direction (Family, Subfamily,...). Wings are unfortunately in very poor condition. Thanks a lot Sebastian basti_st attached the following image:  [218.05Kb] Edited by basti_st on 21-08-2021 09:13 |

Family Chironomidae, tribe Chironomini. Few species are known from the smaller islands. |
